(Drogo island: Past)
*The team land back in the past dimension on an island far off the west coast, many Drogos made this island their home. The island doesn’t exist in the present dimension.
Clara: Ooo, the ocean! We’re on an island!
Clare: Wait a minute… Where the heck are we?!? Did we end up in the wrong place?
Clara: No, I can still see the Aliens making a storm over that way. (She points to the east and they see the mountains levitating by the thunderhead over Shorbe palace)
Clare: But there are no islands near Eternia. This land isn’t a part of our dimension, it only exists here.
Clara: Oh well, time to find out where we are. (She leads the way and they come upon a village. She reads the sign) “Welcome to Drogo’s Island.” “See our enormous, big egg” “Now open for viewing!”
Clare: Ah, this must be where the Drogos live before they all became nomads.
Clara: Maybe, but I don’t see any. Where is everybody?
Lil Clara: eggy!
Clare: Good suggestion. Lets take a look at this big egg then. (There’s only the shell left)
Clara: Aww. It hatched already…
Lil Clara: no eggy?
Clare: I’m afraid not, still where could everyone have gone? Maybe in one of the village huts… (She checks inside the hut and a flash catches her and Lil Clare off guard) Ack! My eyes!
Lil Clare: too bright… (They rub their eyes the same)
Clara: You find somebody, Sis? (A girl with a Camera is in the hut)
Kyla: Aw, whatta lemon! And this film ain’t cheap, neither! <Ace reporter: Kyla, k. Kisha>
Clara: Eh?
Kyla: I was primed for a scoop, and all I got are ponytails and a coupla of sap babies!
Clara:… Sorry, who are you?
Kyla: Huh? Me? Kyla, k Kisha! Ace reporter! The Eternian Express time’s best! (She poses)
Clara: Eternian express times?
Clare: That old newspaper place that got bought out twelve years ago.
Kyla: You know about the giant egg, yeah? Why, it just appeared! And THIS dame’s got a hunch it’s connected to the Shorbes.
Clara: But it hatched already.
Clare: If the Shorbes were responsible for it, I don’t even want to see what hatched from it.
Kyla: I thought I’d get the straight dope from the locals, but… this place is like a morgue! Where is everybody? And speaking of fishy, (She stands next to a jump spring) this jump spring positively reeks of mystery. REEKS of it!
Clara: Does it lead up somewhere?
Kyla: Perhaps. But… I hopped up there, and it didn’t do diddly-squat. I wonder if I’m too heavy for it… Say, do me a favor and hop up there, will ya?
Clara: Lemme try it out! (Sadly, even ith Clara’s unnatural light-weight it doesn’t work) Ah…Okay Babies! Your turn!
Lil Clara and Lil Clare: yah! (They hop on the jump spring and spring up to the attic. There are a bunch of Drogos hiding)
Kyla: Ritzy work! See anything?
Lil Clara: hidey seek? (A Drogo shushes her)
Drogo: Shh! Don’t make noise!
Lil Clare: hmm? something bad?
Kyla: What’s the word? (Suddenly the ground rumbles)
Drogo: NOOO! WE MUST FLEE! (All the Drogos panic and run outside)
Kyla: What? What?
Clara: Where’re they off to in such a hurry?
Clare: A better question is why were they hiding?
Kyla: Ooh, this reporter just got that front-page fever! <3 (She rushes after the Drogos)
Clara: No point in staying here, After them! (Now everyone’s outside)
Clare: Where’d they run off…
???:!!! (The girls freeze with fear)
Clara: That came from behind us…
Clare: I really don’t want to turn around…(They both look, on the roof of the hut is a large Shorpi-Drogo monster)
Clara and Clare: AIYEEEE!
Shogo:! (It jumps off of the hut)
Lil Clara: hide! hide!
Lil Clare: inside! inside!
Clare: Eep!
Clara: Yipe! (They retreat back into hut. Shogo finds one of the Drogos and gulps him whole.)
Kyla: WHATTA SCOOP! Its huge! Exclusive! Stop the presses! (Shogo spots her and gulps her too) Aw, raspberries! My scoop snacked me! <3 Yick! Its all so… ooky and gooky! (Shogo spits her out and she starts tumbling around. It prefers the taste of Drogo instead. He gulps another Drogo and one stands up to it)
Drogo: YOU! RELEASE THEM! (Shogo drools) Doh! (He gets gulped too)
Shogo:!(The twins start to panic as Shogo’s tongue searches the hut they’re hiding in)
Kyla: Comin’ through! (She tumbles in and out of the hut, missing the girls. They breath easy when the footsteps get distant)
Clara: …Is he gone? (Clare peeks her head outside)
Clare: Haah… coast is clear… (They survey the area, Shogo is nowhere in sight)
Clara: Phew. What was that thing?!
Clare: It would seem to be an experiment those Shorbes made. (Kyla’s finished tumbling)
Kyla: Huff… Huff…
Clare: Kyla!
Clara: You good?
Kyla: I haven’t been this jazzed in a Blargg’s age! <3 I can see the headline now! “Monster Shogo from Shorbe on Ravenous Rampage!” Tops! Why I even saw an evil-looking Magiman head into that hut just now, but… Gotta concentrate on this story! This could be my big break! (She goes off looking for Shogo)
Clare: That Magiman has to be Carmek. Lil Carnage must be nearby.
Clara: But, Sis… What about the Drogos? (The babies are worried too)
Clare: We can’t focus on that right now, getting those fragments back is our top priority!
Clara: Okay…what kind of name is “Shogo” anyway…? (She follows Clare in the other hut, Carmek is scavenging inside)
Carmek: Snacks… must find snacks… (He opens a pantry) Score! And doesn’t look like anyone’s home, so I’ll just help myself to the goods.(Swipes several cookies) You gotta wonder why this place is so empty, though…
Clara: Hey!
Carmek: Whoa! You cutesy jerks again! Chased me all the way to this stupid island, have you?
Clara: Give us back our Fragments, thief!
Carmek: Huzzat? You want the Core Star Fragments back?
Clare: We need them back immediately! (The babies puff cheeks)
Carmek: Hey, I got my own problems. I’m on a snack run for lord Carnage. He’s on the cliff top.
Clara: He’s hiding there? Take us to him right now!!
Carmek: I don’t have time for you girls! These snacks ain’t gonna snack on themselves! (He escaped the hut)
Clara: After him! And then to the cliff top!
Clare: Just choose to say one, that sounds odd. (They run outside after Carmek, but he stops in his tracks)
Carmek: GAAAAAACK!!! (He’s face to face with Shogo)
Clara: Eep! It’s back!
Clare: Hide! (The Twins stay out of sight as Shogo gulps Carmek. He spits him out and leaves.)
Carmek: Hey, what’s your beef, pal? I’m not tasty enough for you?! This body’s all prime meat, you snob! (He prefers Drogos) You’re lucky I’m in a rush. I gotta get these snacks to the boss, pronto, or I would crunch that snooty pink head of yours. (He busts down the village gate and goes on his way)
Clara: Huh. Looks like the big guy’s picky.
Clare: Worry isn’t necessary about him, we’re going to lose Carmek at this rate.
Clara: Oh, right! Let’s move!
